Eating City’s call to action

young food dynamics have written a new vision for our broken food system

Corinne StewartEating City Coordinator

The Eating City Summer Campus is currently in its 5th year.

In the truly inspiring location of the Bergerie de Villarceaux, near to Paris, 30 young professionals aged 22-32 spent more than a week together learning and sharing their ideas to shift the current food system paradigm leading to a written “declaration” aimed at alerting stakeholders across the whole food system. “This declaration is a call to action. Critical collaborations, opportunities, and issues are needed to reduce the environmental impact of food, improve food business practices, and increase nutritional consumption.”
